Hello there comic fans and animation lovers The Judas Contract has been a film that has been promised for years well now it's here and i'm here to give you my thoughts on the new movie so here is my review of Teen Titans: The Judas Contract so let's get it on.
Ok so the plot of this movie is the Teen Titans get a new member to the team, Terra who seems to have an ulterior motive as they take on the mercenary Deathstroke and deal with the terroristic threat of Brother Blood. The plot for this 90 minuet movie does take a while to get going but when it does get going it really gets going as for the story i thought it was a great story to tell since i havn't read The Judas Contract comic book i don't know if it's faithful to the source or not but for a film it was a well told story but with pacing issues.
Reprising there roles are Stuart Allan as Damian Wayne / Robin , Taissa Farmiga as Raven , Brandon Soo Hoo as Garfield Logan / Beast Boy , Jake T. Austin as Jaime Reyes / Blue Beetle , Kari Wahlgren as Koriand'r / Starfire , Sean Maher as Dick Grayson / Nightwing and the late Miguel Ferrer as Slade Wilson / Deathstroke and added to the cast is Christina Ricci as Tara Markov / Terra and Gregg Henry as Sebastian Blood / Brother Blood. The regular cast do a great job voicing there characters which is to be expected they have been playing them for a while now altho Raven's voice still gets on my nerves she sounds like a robot only without any life in it but honestly out of the new cast the true standout for me is Christina Ricci she is so good in this movie.
Now DC animated movies don't really have that much adult humor in them that changes with this film because there is a few adult jokes in this movie and i have to admit they were really funny and i'm shocked that Warners let them include adult jokes in this movie not only that but Slade has a potty mouth he swears alot in this movie.
There isn't alot of fighting in this movie but when there is fighting it's really well animated and is really something to behold the fights to me looks like something you'd see out of the new Voltron series or in any anime series that's the type of feeling i was getting when they were on screen and they were great to see.
Like most of the Marvel live action movies the villain in this movie isn't well done i personally wouldn't even say Brother Blood is the main villain i'd say he's more of a secondary villain and that Slade is the main villain but according to the movie it's the other way round which if that is the case then they should have done a better job with Brother Blood and made him more of a threat instead of having just show up in one or two scenes.
As with the previous DC animated movies the animation is top notch the animation has sort of this anime look and feel to it which is an anime fan was something that i really liked and it looked great in the movie. I liked the look of Terra she looks cute and yet bad ass at the same time and i love the fact that they gave her dimples to me it says that she really is just a kid who doesn't know what she's doing. The animation also has a lot of fluid movements and features no animation errors which was great to see.
The score was done by Frederik Wiedmann and just by checking his Wikipedia page i can safely say he has done nothing of note and judging by this film and this film only i think that's a good think because his score was really flat and at times was down right boring to listen to.
Overall this is not the best DC animated movie out there but at the same time it's not the worst now i have included this image from The Looney Tunes Show for a reason and that's because there's a clip of the show in the movie and me being a Looney Tunes fan i really digged it and be on the look out for a cameo from a certain Fatman i give this movie a solid 7.5 out of 10.
